Hello
Thanks for your query.     
unprotected sex 6 days before ovulation has very negligible chance of pregnancy ,as lifespan of ova is less than 36 hours & sperm is not more than 72 hours.

hello,

welcome to HCM

THANKS FOR THE QUERY

generally sperm remain viable till 48 hours to 72 hours

so the chance of pregnancy is very less here

if your ovulation day is 7 th july then try to maintain sexual relationship from 2 days back to 2 days after the date.it will increase the chance of fertilisation and pregnancy

wish you good day and take care
